Breast Implant Placement Buffalo

Posted August 20, 2009 in Breast Augmentation

The placement of the breast implant is has been a hot topic.  There are four main placement types:

Subglandualr – The implant is placed between the breat tissue and the pectoralis muscle

Subfascial – The implant is placed in the subglanduar position, but underneath the fascia of the pectoralis muscle

Subpectoral – The implant is place underneath the pectoralis major muscle after releasing the inferior muscular attachment

Submuscular – The implant is placed below the pectoralis without release of the inferior origin of the muscle

Another major factor is the type of implant you choose:  Silicone or saline.

To know which placement is best for you, please consult a board certified plastic surgeon, like Dr Todd Koch, and schedule a consult.  Dr Todd Koch serves patients in Erie County, including Buffalo, Amherst and Williamsville.
